How about a contest for the most evil earworm? Entries would
Edited on Thu Feb-09-06 04:27 PM by Strong Atheist
be unlimited (post early, post often) and would not be limited to actual songs, but could be jingles, commercials, or other pieces. Perhaps a follow-up poll could be done on the top 9 worst!

To get things started, here are three possibilities:


#1
********************************************************************

Oh I wish I were an Oscar Mayer Wiener.
That is what I'd truly like to be.
'Cause if I were an Oscar Mayer Wiener,
Ev'ryone would be in love with me.


#2
********************************************************************
I love you
You love me
We're a happy family
With a great big hug
And a kiss from me to you
Won't you say you love me too?

I love you
You love me
We're best friends
Like friends should be
With a great big hug
And a kiss from me to you
Won't you say you love me too?


#3
***********************************************************************

It's a world of laughter
A world of tears
It's a world of hopes
And a world of fears
There's so much that we share
That it's time we're aware
It's a small world after all

There is just one moon
And one golden sun
And a smile means
Friendship to ev'ryone
Though the mountains divide
And the oceans are wide
It's a small world after all

It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small world after all
It's a small, small world

7. 309, though as a former AT&T operator (before the
break up), I know that 301 is your state ...

Jenny Jenny who can I turn to,
you give something that I can hold on to,
I know you think that I'm like the others before,
I saw your name and number on the wall.

(Chorus)
Jenny I've got your number,
I'm gonna make you mine,
Jenny don't change your number: 8675309
8675309(3x)

Jenny Jenny your the girl for me,
you don't know me but you make me so happy,
I tried to call you before but I lost my nerve,
I tried my imagination but I was disturbed

(Chorus)

I got it, I got it, I've got your number on the wall
I got it, I got it, for a good time, good a good time call.

**Guitar solo**

4. Hollaback Girl - annoying & catchy
A few times I've been around that track
So it's not just gonna happen like that
I ain't no Hollaback Girl,
I ain't no Hollaback Girl

It's in your head too now, isn't it?

12. Oh god what have you done?!
Now I will have to get up and dance and yell THIS SHIT IS BANANAS! B-A-N-A-N-A-S!

That is the dumbest song ever written and it never fails to make me humiliate myself.

17. the muppet song...
"Mah Na Mah Na is a well-known song, written in 1968 by Piero Umiliani as a soundtrack for the softcore documentary Svezia, Inferno e Paradiso ("Sweden, Hell or Heaven") about sexual activity in Sweden. The song was a hit in many countries including the USA in 1968-9. The song's "lyric" has no actual words, just a series of vocal sounds imitative of scat singing."

"The song subsequently became familiar to many from its rendition on the Muppet Show and Sesame Street. It was performed in 1976 by the Muppets as "Mahna Mahna", and credited to "Manah Manah and the Snowths". As a result, the original Piero Umiliani recording finally became a hit in the UK, where the Muppet Show soundtrack album featuring the Muppets' version went to number one. The alt.tv.muppets FAQ considers "Mahna Mahna" to be the best Muppet sketch ever. The Muppet version of the song is available on various Muppet collections and recordings."

26. Please don't hit me on account of this one:
You can tell the world
you never was my girl,
you can burn my clothes
up when I am gone.
You can tell your friends
just what a fool I've been,
and laugh and joke
about me on the phone

You can tell my arms :
Go back into the farm!
You can tell my feet
to hit the floor.
You can tell my lips
to tell my fingertips,
they won't be reaching out
for you no more.

But don't tell my heart,
my achy breaky heart,
just don't think he'll understand.
But if you tell my heart,
my achy breaky heart,
he might blow up and kill this man.

You can tell your Ma,
I moved to Arkansas,
you can tell your dog
to bite my leg.
Or tell your brother Cliff,
whose fist can tell my lips,
he never really liked me anyway.

Or tell your Aunt Louise,
tell anything you please,
myself already knows I'm not O.K.
Or you can tell my eyes
to watch out for my mind,
it might be walkin' out
on me one day.
